Please I need your help

[flashnimator]

I Can't play the game in my Gaming PC, it's not the specs since my PC has some really good components for the game (Ryzen 5 1600, RX 570 8Gb and 16 gbs of RAM) when i start the game it says something like Error during initialization: Unhandled exception caught, i really need your help to fix this, btw, please don't say that sound 'fix' i tried it, and many other things and it didn't work, if you know how to solve this, i'd gladly appreciate it.

check the crash log and see whats causing the crash, could be mods

try this if the sound fix you mentioned is something else:

if that didn't work, you can also try verifying game files on steam and update DirectX from the folder where the game's installed.

btw, i checked the version of the game file, and it said 1.6, isn't the last version 1.7?

if you have the game on steam, it will automatically be installed as most up-to-date version. at bottom right corner of main menu, the version number should be visible as 1.7.1263.

i can't enter the main menu, since the game crashes when starting

there were some known crashes at launch for cod 2 and cod 4, which were usually fixed either by setting stereo mix as default sound output device at windows audio settings, or plugging something to microphone port. if you currently don't have a mic, you can try plugging something (like cheap earphones of cell phones) to mic port (mic port of case or motherboard's, doesn't matter)

if you built your PC just recently or it's the first time trying to play cod: waw on that PC, you can try updating your audio drivers. you can go to motherboard manufacturer's website and there find the most up-to-date version of audio driver, compatible with your motherboard's model.

that's the last potential fix in my mind and can't help any further if it doesn't work. this game has always been weird: some people play it without issues for years, whereas some people can't even start it once.

I Updated the drivers but nothing, this thing showed up in the error message; Loading fastfile 'code_post_gfx' maybe this file is wrong or something? anyways i think i'm going to give up, it's a shame i spent the money, i really wanted to play this game but welp, thanks anyway!
